טקסט Storyboard
- "Once you wake up thought in a man, you can never put it to sleep again." - Zora Neale Hurston
- That's so true.
- "He drew his machete and cut Ikemefuna down. He was afraid of being thought weak." (Achebe 61)
- Power and strength are many traits. My father wasn't a real man. He was lazy and never helped his family. As a child I saw what he really was and I made the choice to be the opposite of him.Waking up a thought is a choice. There is power in choosing your own path.
- "Once you wake up thought in a man, you can never put it to sleep again." - Zora Neale Hurston
- I wish I had that power.
- Janie reflects on the hardships of adult relationships, "you done lived wid me for twenty years and you don't half know me at all.." (Hurston, 244)"Perhaps down in his heart Okonkwo was not a cruel man. But his whole life was dominated by fear, the fear of failure and of weakness." (Achebe 13)
- Some times being an adult is hard. Maybe you couldn't see all of his responsibilities.
- He was useless! I chose to see him for who he was and decided to become a real man. I never turned back.
- Janie is sad reflecting on her life, "She was saving up feelings for some man she had never seen. She had an inside and outside now and suddenly she knew how not to mix them." (Hurston 233) Her image of a loving man is shattered.
- When I was a child, my life took a different turn and I couldn't go back either. But I didn't actually make the choice, not consciously anyway. I was a young girl who kissed a someone and was forced to marry him. After that, I became a woman, like it or not.
- I wanted to have more of my childhood because it was too short lived. However, like the quote says, "... you can never put it to sleep again." I'm a woman with a woman's responsibilities now, regardless of what I wanted.
- Well, how about you Nick?
- I know that you can't put a thought, or action for that matter, back to sleep. Life luckily helped me avoid it all together.
- So you, Okonkwo, made a choice to see something and become something different to take a different path than your father. Then you, Janie, you didn't actively make the choice but you couldn't go back either.
- What does "life helped me avoid it" mean?
- Nick Carraway sees Jordan Baker is just like everyone else in East Egg “Angry, and half in love with her, and tremendously sorry, I turned away.” (Fitzgerald 9)
- I really idolized a gentlemen named Gatsby. He was wealthy and the most hopeful person I've ever met. I thought rich people were something to admire but I was wrong. In the six short months I lived around them, I saw the selfish and terrible things the rich would do when I watched Gatsby's friends. Then, Gatsby was murdered and his life was cut short. Was he as bad as the others? I'll never know. Life spared me from knowing for sure.
